My advice is to closely inspect the crank they send you the one they sent me I use every day...as a paper weight

Hey guys; I've been without power since friday at 8:30 or 9.
Those marks on the side of the case are from the springs.. I broke it in and then took it to the track for a test and tune with some buddies so I could put it away and save it for the nationals in toledo. I have never bought a jp before this one and thought it was a little weak from the get go. Maybe my expectation of the hype was set kind of high but my buddies that do have them are zipping by me in my first time out...
The crank is really cool and the case is coated inside and out with the JP special black coating. I only want from Jp the sleeve that was supposed to come with the FX12 t03. If they swapout the sleeve I will be fine.

THE ONLY THING YOU HAD TO DO IS ANSWER THE POST IN YOUR FORUM PROPERLY, THE WAY YOU ARE DOING HERE, AND THAT'S IT.
NOBODY IS BLAMING YOU FOR ERASING THE POST HERE, THAT IS CLEAR.
AND IF YOU WERE OFFENDED BY THE WORD"FISHY", SORRY MAN, BUT YOU HAVE TO AGREE THAT SINCE THERE WAS NO OFFICIAL ANSWER UP UNTIL NOW, IT LEAD TO BELIEVE THAT SOMETHING WAS GOING ON. AND YES I AGREE WITH YOU THAT THE PROBLEM IS A ONE TO ONE SOLUTION WITH THE AFFECTED PARTY, BUT SINCE THE PROBLEM WEN'T PUBLIC, WE POTENTIAL COSTUMERS HAVE THE RIGHT TO KNOW THE END OF THE STORY.
SORRY AGAIN IF YOU OR MUGEN USA ARE PISSED OFF, BUT THERE IS AND WASN'T NO INTENTION ON INDISPOSING ANYBODY.
AND BY THE WAY, I DON'T LIKE YOUR IMPLICATION THAT I HIDE ON MY FORUM KNIKNAME TO POST MY OPINIONS, I JUST WEN'T BY THE FORUM RULES THAT ASKED FOR ONE.
MY FULL NAME IS ALFONSO FLOREZ, FROM LIMA-PERU, SOUTH AMERICA, AND I'M A PROUD OWNER OF A MUGEN MTX3 PROSPEC.
PEACE ON YOU

At the Swedish RC forum this same thing happened, 2 guys from Kyosho Sweden were really agressive, the whole thing ended up with a loss of respect of the whole Kyosho concern, at least the Swedish one... This one isn't at all like that though, but can evolve to, and that will just end up with a loss of respect for Mugen Racing..
I'm not wanting to be the big momma here, just telling my opinion..

Trying to rip you off !!! Give me a break Did you think I got rid of that convo I taped. oops! I'm going to say this and thats it . My many years of racing and enjoying RC cars I have had one situation with a RC company that not only riped me off,passed off used parts and blantenley lied to me Was Mugen Racing out of Calif. When I first warned prople in here about what they did one guy told me that I was overreacting! One month later I recived a email from this same guy telling me how mugen racing riped him off too. He took it a little further then I did and filed out some formal complaints on Mugan Racing and I'm sure that wasent a first. Robie C your pathetic lies are just getting you in deeper And I'm sure by now more people have found out about how you treat costumers. That said I still love Mugen cars but NEVER will I deal with Mugan racing out of calif. And hear's a clue You don't have to con people when you are honest!!! Something to think about

I just wanted to say that Robbie Collins has been very helpful and checked the other motors he has in Cali. and the sleeves in those motors is the same as mine. It seems that JP changes things within the motor and I would have to take it up with JP Racing. If I want a different sleeve than what I have.
I want to thank Robbie Collins and Mugen Racing in Cali

I have talked to Robbie probably 3-4 days a week for the last 3 weeks. I just got an MTX-3 and am trying to prepare it for my world domination tour. I have had absolutely positive conversations with him and positive help and advice. Thanks to him, the tour starts in less than 2 weeks.
